“In education, as in many other sectors looking for a quick-fix, big data suddenly promises a new salvation. If we just collect and analyze enough data, isn’t the state of education going to improve? … There is no doubt in my mind that more data on individual student’s learning style could help teachers. But the danger is that this will turn into the new incarnation of the notion that ‘putting a computer in front of a student’ is in and of itself a solution to what ails education today.”–Pressed Data
